embed.js is very tricky to work with. You could try ?lzt=html-object
and look at the source to play with the plug-in options; or, maybe
you just want to set the canvas width/height to 100%, which will
cause it to size to the plug-in?

I have a rather complex application that we are deploying in SOLO
mode that I would like to automatically resize with preserving the
aspect ratio. I don't want to use constraints as not all
components (like tabs, tabsliders, etc) auto-constrain font sizes,
etc.
I would like to set the sizes manually (at least of the canvas and
outer most views), and have the flash player take care of the
scaling as it supports scaling with aspect preservation. This
allows complete control of the application look/feel and allows me
to develop at a higher resolution (like 1280x1024 to get the ratios
correct), but still deploy at any size client's browser is
configured. (With special note to the 640x480 screens, which make
most modern applications look terrible).
I also need the application to look good with any size or aspect of
window. So... Why is it that the SWF files generated from Laszlo do
not respect the aspect scale defaults of the flash player? Other
applications/swf files that are pure flash do so.
Is there a way to have the generated solo swf file respect the
scale attribute of the flash player?
Do I need to modify the Java sources used to compile the swf files?
I'm not shy about changing the underlying laszlo source or swf
generation pieces, and would be happy to repost the mods to support
this functionality.
A very simple example is:
[canvas width="1024" height="768" proxied="false"]
[view width=”${parent.width}” height=”${parent.height}”]
[text]Here is some text[/text]
[/view][/canvas]
When run as an embedded swf, or even a standalone swf, the aspect
ratio specified is not respected.
Things I have tried with no effect:
- Modified the embed tags in my deployment HTML to have
scale=showall.
- Modified the base xslt stylesheets provided in the distro
from scale=noscale to scale=showall
- Modified all the html/js files with respect to any and
all scale= tags
I know that most applications would dynamically stretch to fit a
page and utilize more real estate for functional areas, and in fact
we have other applications that work in that manner. But since
this an end-user consumer oriented application (think TIVOish), I
need the application to look/act/feel the same regardless of the
deployment environment.
Thanks in advance for any insight into this question.
